buildbots should have an "svn info" step
Hello Patrick, Could you nag the buildbot maintainers to add an "svn info" step for their bots? The issue is that you can get the svn URL only from the bot config, which is not always available. -- Best regards, Adam GROSZER mailto:agroszer@gmail.com -- Quote of the day: You auto buy now.

Patrick asked me a while ago to switch to using mode='clobber', which means the initial checkout step always does an rm -rf followed by an svn checkout with the full URL. Marius Gedminas -- http://pov.lt/ -- Zope 3/BlueBream consulting and development

Yes, but some rightfully objected that creates lots of traffic. I think it would be nice if everybody sweeps their slaves contents once in a while, like weekly. I also really like the svn info step. I have seen ccomb has something a bit more advanced, but I have to check that again. Apart from that, I think it was your idea, that everybody should try to trigger their buildbots at the same time, like midnight GMT. That sounds also good. Next week I will go through the current buildbot list and collect some more information, and contact each one individually. This week I won't find the time. Best regards, Patrick

I just added a weekly cleanup cron for the slaves

I've copied it from Marius' buildbot conf (pov.lt). It can be either done with a inherited SVN build step which redefines the createSummary method. But the actual one is a custom LastChange Step. See http://buildbot.afpy.org/ztk1.0dev/master.cfg
Apart from that, I think it was your idea, that everybody should try to trigger their buildbots at the same time, like midnight GMT. That sounds also good.
I've moved the time around midnight Christophe
Next week I will go through the current buildbot list and collect some more information, and contact each one individually. This week I won't find the time.
Best regards,
Patrick
